It is time again to find some new members to join the CliC Scientific Steering Group (SSG) from January 2020 to December 2023. Please circulate this opportunity to people in your wider networks who may be good candidates or consider self-nomination if you are interested in joining the team.

The SSG currently comprises 9 researchers from around the world with a wide range of expertise in global cryosphere observation and modelling. The SSG guides CliC’s priorities and activities, working together with the SSG co-chairs and the CliC project office. SSG members should thus have a good overview of the CliC science plan: https://bit.ly/2oOPCy0 relevant regional and international research agendas, and how CliCs priorities align with those of the new WCRP strategy.

Scientific expertise, career stage as well as gender and geographical balance are taken into account. We particularly encourage applications from underrepresented countries. Initial membership is for four years and, as a rule, two extensions of two years each may be recommended. The SSG typically meets once a year.
